5 out of 5 stars Well written book   June 23, 2010

I'm using the book to facilitate a group that is studying for the certification exam. The book is well written and easy to understand. However, there is a lot of detail in the book that is a challenge for those indviduals who do not have a lot of networking experience to ingest. The self-test questions are very helpful, especially since explanations are provided that identify why the wrong answers are wrong and correct answers are correct. The "exam watch" hints are also a benefit, as they add emphasis to concepts that are important to know for the sake of passing the exam. Overall, it is a good study aid for the Network + certification.

The book is good and well written. This is a good book for the exam and explains the concepts well, but you will need another such as the CompTia Sybex book. The Sybex book has diagrams that you will need and should be copied and memorized, such as the speeds of all fiber cables and what size laser lights pass through each different fiber cable.


5 out of 5 stars Great book! Read it over 4 days, took test, and passed.   March 8, 2010

I don't like reading normally, but this book was really easy to follow. It has the facts you need, but it's not so techno-jargony that you fall asleep while you are reading it. I read it over a 4 day time period, took the test, and passed!!! I read each chapter and did the test questions at the end of each, and it more than prepared me for the exam.

Of course, I was well rested for the exam. And, before the exam, I read all of the chapter summaries for a quick refresher.

Good luck all!!!



4 out of 5 stars good book. used and passed exam.   July 15, 2010

Used only this book for studying and passed on the first try. Great reading, and I am the type that hates reading books. The only thing i wish was that the practice exam on the CDROM had more questions and chose them at random.


3 out of 5 stars Somewhat incomplete   October 7, 2009

While this is an informative book, especially concerning Microsoft networking utilities and features, there were definitely some areas on the Network+ 2009 N10-004 test (just took it today, and passed, but not as well as I would have liked) that were not well covered in this book. The areas that could definitely use more attention were CIDR-based sub-netting and physical facility equipment and tools. There was a lot of emphasis on troubleshooting scenarios as well. While the book (content/quizzes/test) focuses many questions around Microsoft tools/utilities, I experienced next to no Microsoft-centric questions on the actual test. (The test is actually very vendor neutral)

I realize it is not easy to create a test prep book like this, and I appreciate authors like Glen providing these resources. But at the same time, it is hard for any book to provide all possible knowledge needed for a test like this.
